Neighborhoods

Vice says this area "has that Austin feel of being a little worn-in yet working on reupholstering. Crowd-wise, it's kinda the hippish kids from East Sixth who finally made salary and don't feel like raging all night." That's accurate. Get tacos and horchata at El Chilito. Local butcher restaurant Dai Due for wild boar charcuterie. Sports bar meets hipster bar at Haymaker.
